Stargazing at the Gateway Arch

The "Gateway to the Stars" program is a unique opportunity to showcase our club and St. Louis to visitors from around the world.  

We setup at the Arch Main Entrance Plaza where the traffic flow is the heaviest. The park issues a limited number of parking placards that allow volunteers to park on the north side of Market St., just west of Memorial Dr., adjacent to the Plaza.  This is less than 100 yards from the viewing area making access very convenient and easy.  The crowd is greatest early on during the event, so set up should take place before sunset, around 7:30 or 7:45 pm.  Rich will have a walking tour that should end around 7:40, and a lot of whatever crowd there is will probably come from that.
